Does anyone know when the new pictures of the fishing village are due to be released.
Calamity, the HV in Dominion Republic was my first choice and I haven't heard one bad report about it. However my partner has set holidays at work and with it being the monsoon season as you mentioned I was weary about the weather. I do know lots of people who go to the Caribbean in Aug every year and only ever had one day of rain if that. However with it being my wedding i didn't want to take the chance of that possible one day being the day I get married.
Gina, when you said about the restaurant being full and running out of cutlery etc, did this happen often as I have to admit this did cross my mind. The only thing I was hoping is as not every one staying at the HV are all inclusive some are self catering it might not be as bad (wishful thinking).
I have to admit I have been feeling really down about the whole thing as I was so looking forward to it at the beginning. I did go through the brochures yesterday considering changing the whole thing but after looking at other Holiday Villages, then looking at google earth which I think it was your partner ellsbells who mentioned it, so thanks to him, I do think its going to be a great place
so im trying to stay positive.
I have just noticed that I have received a email today from Christakis Efstathiou at the Aliathon. I had previously emailed them re the completion and kids pool etc. He says ' Please note that by the end of april everything will be finished, even the kids splash pool. You have nothing to worry about.' Its not much i know but its positive(i didnt think I would get a reply). If any one wants the address it is - reservations@aliathonvillage.com
Hi,reply to cutlery etc it happened most nights we had to ask them to clear tables as there was 5 of us and sometimes we had to sit on seperate tables as there was no room for 5 to sit only sometimes though, dont worry about your wedding i got married last oct in holiday village dominican we had lovely weather till about 4 o clock and you were guaranteed rain, so they brought my wedding time forward so i could get pictures etc before it rained guess what we had a thunderstorm on the day we got married so we had to do the pics the day after we just laughed about it there was no electric no lights but what the heck we enjoyed it getting our hair done and getting the chance to wear my dress again was bliss so dont worry at end of the day you cant predict the weather no matter where you go, the canadians that was staying at the resort came up to me and said its actually good luck for it to rain on your wedding day
All of the problems above about the Holiday Villages i am happy to say we did'nt experience any of them at the Viva in Majorca.
Hi ladies, thanks for your replies. Gina i think you are right you cannot predict the weather or anything else that may or may not happen. It seem you had a good time anyway, and thats what ive been thinking whatever happens you just have to try and make the best of it, and im sure without a doubt we will all enjoy.
Williams are you planning on swapping to the dominican then.
Hi Ellsbells no I am not changing to the Dominican. Like I said you cant predict whats gonna happen on any holiday so I'm sticking with Cyprus. I'm sure by the time I go (30 July) if there are still things unfinished they should be minimal, and whatever happens we will just make the most of it. Its not as simple for me to just change anyway because I return back to the uk on a Wednesday and I have a wedding party all organised for the Saturday night so trying to find another holiday with flights within these dates at this late stage is a bit of a nightmare.
Me too we fly home on the sunday and are having a party the Saturday after. You will probably recognise me on the 5th august in my wedding dress so please say hello as we are going to be there at the same time.
Yes I will definately look out for you, Hope all goes well for your big day.
you too
Looks like all we can do is wait for some reviews to come in, we booked in June last year, as soon as the brochure was released and got a free child place, when I looked the weekend, to change to another location is going to cost a fortune ! Fingers crossed !
We are travelling 6th August. This our 4th visit to Holiday villages we have been to Holiday Village Viva Majorca in 2005 and 2006 and the Holiday Village Red Sea in 2007. We went through all this uncertainty last year with the Red Sea but by the time we travelled in August the majority of it was finished and we had a fabulous time so much so we have just re booked for Easter 09. We have travelled as a party of 12 and have never experienced problems in restaurants re cutlery etc although we sometimes had adult and kids tables but this was our choice. Also the al a carte restaurants have always been 1 visit per restaurant per week and this has never been a problem, in fact we normally struggle to fit all our visits in as the food in the main restaurant has always been so good. Looking forward to new pictures and first reviews, any general questions re holiday villages please ask.
Thats encouraging, we're not travelling till 16th August so plenty of time, its just the amount of letters we seem to be receiving with ammendments, we are now on our third ! I am starting to dread letters from FC falling through our letterbox !
Dont worry we had all those last year and the village was a complete new build so the first guests were moved to alternative accomodation but by August everything was great. I am sur if will be as fantastic as all the others.
When were the first guests told they had to be moved to other accomodation. We fly out on the 27th of july and this really concerns me.
Only like Ellsbells i fly out the end of July (30)
Were are you flying from williams.
Cardiff, how about you.
